Chapter 2 Beautiful Women in the Mountains
Zhao Ji's face turned blue with fright, he straightened up, and was about to continue to find his way back to the academy, when he accidentally glanced at Zhang Xiu's calm expression, and couldn't help but say angrily: "You are so fearless, there must be a way to go back, right!" ”
Zhang Xiu looked helpless and said: "It's really not, but my physical strength is okay, I only need to run faster than you when I encounter a wolf, and I shouldn't be eaten." ”
When Zhao Ji heard this, his heart suddenly became cold, he held on to the locust tree, sat on the ground with a pale face, and muttered blankly: "I don't want to die yet...... I don't want to die yet......"
Zhang Xiu looked at his frightened appearance and sighed: "You haven't been chased and bitten by a wolf yet, you are scared like this bird, think about the people who were bitten by your dog before, now you can understand their feelings." ”
"I ......"
Zhao Ji came back to his senses after listening to his words, opened his mouth, and was speechless for a long time.
At this moment, his stomach suddenly rumbled, and he screamed with hunger.
Originally, he was so angry with Zhang Xiu that he didn't eat lunch during the day, and he got lost in the back mountain for a long time, and he was already hungry when his physical strength was exhausted.
Glancing at Zhang Xiu, he said with some difficulty: "You, do you have anything to eat?" ”
Zhang Xiu nodded, rummaged in his backpack, and after a while, he took out a piece of bread, and said with some embarrassment: "I still have a piece of bread here, which was made by my mother when I came to the academy, and I have never been willing to eat it, and at this critical moment, I sold it to you for two hundred taels of silver!" ”
Zhao Ji began to see that he was willing to share his own bread to eat, and he was a little ashamed in his heart, and when he heard the end, he couldn't help but be angry: "Two hundred taels of bread per piece, do you open a black shop!" ”
Zhang Xiu replied confidently: "You are too expensive or I am too expensive, you just say if you want it!" ”
"What the hell am I ...... Bring! ”
Zhao Ji gritted his teeth fiercely, pulled off the purse on his waist and threw it at Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu stretched out his hand to catch the purse, handed the dough out with a smile, and said, "This money is not what I want, it is the soup and medicine fee I asked for for those who were bitten by you." ”
Zhao Ji glanced at him angrily and argued: "It wasn't me who bit it, it was a dog who bit it." ”
Zhang Xiu looked at the purse in his hand, and said indifferently: "Hey, isn't this all the same......"
"I'm ......"
Zhao Ji took a few deep breaths and tried to calm the anger in his heart, he could see that if he died here today, it was very likely that he would not be bitten to death by a wolf, but by Zhang Xiu......
Thinking depressedly, he picked up the dough cake worth two hundred taels of silver and took a bite hard, but in the next moment, his face immediately changed.
The muscles of his cheeks twitched violently twice, he opened his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood, and looked at Zhang Xiu with an unkind expression: "You just said that this bread was made for you by your mother when you came to the academy?" ”
Zhang Xiu was a little confused, frowned, and said, "Yes, is there any problem?" ”
Zhao Ji darkened his face and continued to ask, "What day did you come to the academy?" ”
Zhang Xiu thought about it for a moment and said, "About ten years ago. ”
Zhao Ji: "@#¥%¥#@......"
Ten years ago!!
It seems that he still underestimated Zhang Xiu after all, Zhang Xiu is much darker than opening a black shop......
After a while, Zhao Ji ate a few bites of the bean cake that Zhang Xiu used to feed the cow, and finally felt that he was alive again, stood up again, and said, "Let's go further, maybe we can find Fu Bo and them before dark." ”
Zhang Xiu hummed, and the two walked slowly together in the thick fog.
After a while, the two came to a winding path, and at the end of the path, a thatched house appeared in front of them.
There was an oil lamp lit in the room, and in the shadow of the window, a graceful figure held a handkerchief, his shoulders trembled slightly, as if he was sobbing silently.
Seeing that there was someone in front of him, Zhao Ji was excited and walked forward: "There is a family in front, it seems that we don't have to sleep in the wilderness tonight!" ”
Zhang Xiu looked at the simple thatched house not far away that had already appeared in front of him once, pressed Zhao Ji's shoulder, and said with a serious face: "Don't go over, there is a problem with this family!" ”
Zhao Ji's body trembled and stopped, and he turned his head with a puzzled face: "What's the problem?" ”
Zhang Xiu lowered his voice and said: "I have been walking in the back mountain for ten years, and I have never heard that there are people living in the back mountain. Think about it for yourself, in the barren mountains and mountains, a family suddenly appeared, and there was a young woman with a graceful figure living in it......"
In the deep voice, a cold wind hit, which made Zhao Ji's back chill, and he couldn't help but shiver.
In the past few years, he has heard many strange stories, including the story of a young man who was lured into the mountain house by a young woman, and was found dead on the side of the road the next day, and his heart was gouged out.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and looked at Zhang Xiu with some horror: "Could it be that this family ......?"
Zhang Xiu nodded firmly: "Well, you guessed right, this family and the woman inside must be specially danced by immortals!" ”
"Huh??"
Zhao Ji's expression was messy, his eyes widened, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
When Zhao Ji showed a skeptical expression, the woman in the room was also full of messiness.
When Zhang Xiu first came, he only glanced at her through the window, then turned away, completely ignoring her.
At that time, she thought that Zhang Xiu was a decent gentleman, and she was unwilling to share a room with a woman, and she was a bad person.
But now it seems......
Her heart was full of grooves, and she couldn't help but speak out.
At this time, Zhao Ji outside the house finally came back to his senses, showed an expression of crying and laughing, and said: "Brother Zhang, my Zhang Dashan person, who would play fairy jumping in this ghost place where birds don't!" Taking a step back, even if I really meet a bad guy, the son of my dignified servant, who of them would dare to touch me to try? ”
"What's not to dare to do."
Zhang Xiu glanced at him faintly: "In this kind of ghost place, even if someone kills your corpse and feeds it to the wolves, who will know." ”
Zhao Ji was stunned when he heard this, and felt that what he said also made some sense, and then noticed Zhang Xiu's gentle and elegant smile, which made him creepy and smiling, and unconsciously took a step back: "Don't use this smile at me, I ...... I'm so scared! ”
At this moment, a wolf howl sounded in the distance, becoming the last straw that crushed Zhao Ji.
Zhao Ji was furious by the wolf's howl, gritted his teeth ruthlessly, and said: "Even if you really meet a villain, it's much better than staying outside and being bitten to death by a wolf!" As if he had made up his mind, he strode towards the thatched hut.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiu couldn't help but shake his head, followed him, and came to the hut together.
After a few knocks on the door, a beautiful woman dressed in plain clothes with a charming face opened the door.
It seems that because she has just cried, her eyes are slightly red and swollen, which adds a touch of pear blossom and rain to her body.
Zhao Ji was stunned by the woman's beauty for a moment, then came back to his senses and saluted: "Madame is polite, Brother Zhang and I are students of Luzhou Academy, and we can't find the way back when we strayed into the mountains and forests, I don't know if Madame can let me and the two of us rest here for one night." ”
The beautiful woman covered her face with a handkerchief, glanced at Zhang Xiu and Zhao Ji with shyness, lowered her head and said, "If the two sons don't like the humble house, then come in." ”
Zhao Ji was overjoyed, and followed her into the house with his chest straight.
Immediately, he noticed that Zhang Xiu did not follow the house, turned to look, and found that Zhang Xiu was circling around the house, as if rummaging for something.
Zhao Ji was confused and asked, "Brother Zhang, what are you looking for?" ”
Zhang Xiu looked at the water tank at the door, and said in a casual tone: "Oh, you're busy, I'll find out where her accomplices are hiding." ”
Zhao Ji: "......"
Beauty: "......"
In an instant, she almost couldn't help but shout: I'm a ghost, not a dry immortal!
